News Information

Volunteer Puppy Walkers Needed!
Date: Tuesday 03 January, 2012
News Summary:
We are urgently looking for volunteer puppy walkers in County Dublin and Kildare. We also need puppy walkers in Munster.
News Content:
A Volunteer puppy walker plays a key role in helping us train the dogs who will go on to work as Guide Dogs and Assistance Dogs. Their job is to rear the puppy and educate it so that it becomes a well-mannered, well adjusted; socially acceptable animal.


Our team of puppy walking supervisors provide support and encouragement to ensure that that the experience is a rewarding one for the volunteers and that the puppy's training remains on schedule. We provide full support with veterinary costs, food and training equipment. The training is focused on socialiasing and developing positive behaviours in the pups through exposing them to towns and cities, transport, retail and the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the home.

If you think you might be interested in becoming a Volunteer Puppy Walker please click here for more information. You can also call us on 1850 506 300.
